When I do a search for bees knees, it comes up as the first or second link in th esearch. My problem is that there is no description or text taken from the site so it just says-
Bee's Knees
www.beeskneesmusic.com

How do I set it so that the text on the home page apears on the search?

Re: Web search question

in the <head> tag of your index page add a description and a keyword tag. Something like this

<meta name="description" content="Description goes in here" /><br /><meta name="keywords" content="keywords go in here" />

also in the head you have a title tag. Right now yours is <title>Bee's Knees Home Page</title>, you can also alter that.

Re: Web search question

It does take a while sometimes for search engines to reindex your site.

I am looking at the code for your homepage now and I don't see a description tag or a keyword tag.

Here is what I see for meta data on your site.


<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"><br /><meta http-equiv="reply-to" content="beesknee@beeskneesmusic.com" /><br /><meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" /><br /><meta content="TRUE" name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" />
